 Community and the
Environment
Boomerang Books is committed to the principles of the 'triple bottom
line' in business and seeks to achieve economic, social and
environmental outcomes.
We do this through a number of initiatives:
Charity of the Month. Boomerang Books donates 5% of its
profits to a selected charity
each month.
Support for the Indigenous Literacy Project. Having set a
target of $100,000 in donations for 2007, the Indigenous Literacy
Project exceeded its expectations by raising over $179,000 for
indigenous literacy. This money will be dedicated to purchasing books
and literacy resources for a host of Aboriginal communities across
Australia.

Boomerang Books is proud to be involved with this very important
initiative and has again pledged its support for this year's Indigenous
Literacy Day, which falls on Wednesday 3 September 2008.
Support for the Australian book industry. At a time when most
booksellers are fighting to curb the impact of Amazon and Borders,
Boomerang Books represents an Australian online bookstore that showcases
Australian book titles first and foremost, and publishes Australian book
content.
Universal book discounting. Boomerang Books encourages
Australians to read by providing regular opportunities to purchase
discounted books across our entire range. We discount much of our
catalogue - not just the mass produced paperbacks that are sold as 'loss
leaders' in the discount department stores.
